That's more or less everything I'm rotating through at the moment. I almost always listen to a whole album at a time. I do like a lot of pop and soul and other stuff that just isn't getting played right now.

I used to keep a running tab on which artists were found in my CD collection, but I don't always update it. There might be a few bands missing. And if you add in all of my wife's CDs, this list would be double.

Forgot to add Converge! Yeah I like older pop stuff like Alanis Morissette, Shania Twain etc. etc. Grew up listening to it :)

Converge are spectacular. Saw them in France at the Hellfest festival and everyone flocked away from the main stage - was it Within Temptation up there? - to Converge's set only after the big C had gotten a few songs in. They were absolutely spectacular.

As pop goes I'm more of a Justin Timberlake, Divine Comedy, kinda guy here. I play an Alanis Morissette song in our set. It drives me nuts!!!

I have a big listening habit where I like a unified experience. Which is why I like whole albums, and I also want stuff to segue into each other. It's a really compulsive thing, I don't like throwing on bebop Miles after playing Bitches Brew. But I might throw on Blue Moods, which is a kind of dark and moody record from that bebop time period, and go from there to a more bebop thing, if I have the time.

That's a big part of listening for me. What I've just listened to determines where I go.

My teacher at school told me to listen to Homewrecker. Listened to it and I was blown away instantly! They are pretty heavy and the drummer barely ever uses double bass which is really impressive and he's also amazing! But they can put on a show!

I like about 96% of your list :) seems pretty good!
Not a Metallica or Linkin Park person. And Within Temptation.

I like music that utilizes the 12 notes and the 12 key signatures ;) Although I'm not opposed to some scales that have 5 notes to 33 notes.... Sometimes I like interesting time signatures like stuff in 11/8 or 17/16, but I can tolerate 4/4 too.

There are exceptions, but I suppose in the simplest form I mostly listen to Rock, Metal, and Alternative. I listen to a lot, but here's a short list of artists that I listen to more often than others (and the bold even more than that).

I've seen a couple people mention Dillinger Escape Plan, and I've got tickets to see Deftones again here in a couple of weeks with Dillinger Escape Plan. Dillinger Escape Plan is a little more... metal-core? than what I usually like to listen to, but I picked up the Ire Works album and I don't hate it. Curious to see them play live, and SUPER excited to see Deftones headline a show; I've seen them as an opener twice.

Dillinger are incredible and sooooo energetic live! It's unbelievable. I've only seen videos, but what I've seen. Wow!
Chris Pennie is a monster too!

Pretty much. You can't do alot of casuals and not know alot of everything. You need to listen to alot of everything to just be aware of what's out there that people might ask you to play. I'm known for having the correct clothes too - tuxes for weddings, blue jeans and boots for country gigs, black leather for the rockin' music, etc.,....basic black business for musicals... oh yeah, and you got to be able to read really good too ;)

So if I ever rant here about not liking something - it's all a facade. I'm a musical whore - pay me enough money and I'll be the drummer you've been looking for forever!

I have to say, i dont listen to much except classic rock, but i like A LOT of classic rock bands, not just the obvious few which are:
the beatles
led zeppelin
the stones
hendrix
cream
but also a few different ones too that are not... how should i put it...household names like:
yes
grand funk railroad
deep purple
the police
supertramp
jethro tull
the doors
genesis

I'm not sure about that bro. I think almost every band in the second list has vastly outsold Cream. Great groups all the same. It took me until this year for my Aunt to get me to listen to Jethro Tull for the first time! And they're great.

Cream wasn't together very long and didnt put out alot of material. I dont think its hard to believe they were out sold. But they are vastly well known and are definitely more listened to and have more fans than most on the second list.

Looking at the list on my ipod, quite a lot. Loads of world music from places like Indonesia, Portugal, Africa, the Middle East, Asia , South America etc etc. Lots of jazz form across eras and sttyles. Rock, funk, RnB, hip hop, rap etc etc. Pretty much anything new I can find.
